The master bedroom is also on the main level and has an en suite bathroom with soaking tub and Smart TV for streaming. The main level keeps on giving with a screened in porch, propane gas grill and deck. Your group will love the upper-level lofted area which affords you extra space to relax and play featuring an arcade game (with 3,000 games), foosball table and board games.

A beautiful and well-designed space

We had a great time at this giant, well appointed home. The decor suited our tastes and the beds were fantastic. Guidelines and instructions were clear and the kitchen had everything we could have wanted, all clean and in good working order. We relaxed, we cooked, and we ate and drank until we were stuffed. The perks of the game machine and football table were appreciated by the younger crowd, as was the woodland setting by the older folk. Overall, we loved this place and hope to come back soon.
